Elan Cipher 2015 Review

Elan designed the Cipher with the traditionalist in mind, but it still has enough tech to keep the kids happy.

This regular camber, true twin features Elan’s Jib Wood Core, V3 Sidewalls, Carbon/Kevlar Power Dash Reinforcements and Warp 8 base. That might be a little confusing for you, but those big words essentially mean this board will go fast, turn on a dime and pop over anything. If you’re the kind of guy who rides the same board in any condition all season long, you might want to add this board to the list of prospects.

Quotes From Our Testers

“This is a great all-mountain board. If you want to just go snowboarding and have a good time, buy this.”

“Remember positive camber? Elan does; this stick has life. Do yourself a favour and don’t sleep on Elan.”
